Summary

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said Monday that investigators are looking into the possibility that Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin acted alone or as part of a larger plot with others involved. Investigators have confirmed reports that the suspect had voiced violent intentions at a family dinner before the attack. Utah prosecutors have booked the shooting suspect on aggravated murders charge but we still await the possibility of federal charges being added. FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Andrew Cherkasky, a former federal prosecutor and military veteran turned high profile criminal defense and civil trial lawyer, who says the state has a strong case already even without federal charges being applied yet.
